Libraries in Plymouth are to bring us yet more pro asylum seeker and multicultural propaganda with a "myth busting" week to help visitors "find out the truth" about refugees.

As part of Refugee Week 2011, libraries will host quizzes - one wonders if only the truth they want to hear will be accepted as answers, or if the questions will be loaded to extol the benefits refugees bring to the UK - and will be hosting collaborative artwork asking "what makes us feel safe".

The information on refugee week itself treats us to such information as "Mario Stanic, Jackie Chan, Albert Einstein, Mika...what do all these people have in common - They are all refugees."

At least they're more up to date than the other eminent figures who have been refugees that we're proudly informed of. Victor Hugo, Karl Marx, Sigmund Freud, etc, etc. Perhaps there was a higher quality of refugee back then, looking around Britain today we seem to get far more murderers and perverts than we do eminent thinkers or talented writers.

And, of course, we'll not mention the fact that number of those "fleeing" to Britain is absolutely unprecedented and utterly transforming society, it's happening on a much larger scale than those rosy years of yore.

Hoodwinking us into ignoring flaws the entire asylum system here, we are told that "Instead of asking why people come to the UK, why they don't go to neighbouring countries, Refugee Week aims to get people asking why refugees have had to leave their countries, their families and their homes".

Good call. We'll just ignore our lucrative benefits system open to abuse by all, our useless border controls and our virtual inability to deport, how many other safe countries they have passed through to get here, easy pickings creating an immigrant carried crime wave, and every other issue which makes us a magnet for people from the world over.

Instead, let's focus on the refugees plight, and of course make sure that we choose fitting sob stories and tales of success, we'll not mention anything that might contradict the glowing and sacred mirage of enrichment.

That's the wonderful world of propaganda for you, tell only the good, ignore the bad. Truth is malleable and elastic, and we'll tell you what the truth is and bust those myths, heaven forbid you have to think for yourselves.

When can we expect Plymouth libraries to host a week of quizzes and events so that we can find out the truth about all of the problems which the alarming and unprecedented influx of people into the UK in recent years have brought us? One doubts that will happen any time soon.

So much for balanced information, it's just another outing in telling us what to believe and think.
